Two issues with this rom:
A) can't get home switcher to stay loaded so that I can switch to Launcher Pro. Is there anyway around this?
B) Is there any way to get rid of the HTC embedded mod keyboard and use Swift Key? There is no setting under KEYBOARD which allows you to choose which keyboard to use?
Thanks, in Advance....

A) Ok do this presss menu>settings>applications>manage applications>press the "All" tab>Scroll down to HTC Sense and tap it> scroll down and select "clear defaults"> now from the Home button on your phone(looks like a house)>A Complete Action Using window should appear> Check the "Use by default for this action" button>then select launcher pro......Laucher pro should be your default launcher now.
B) under settings>Language & Keyboard. Check the box next to all the keyboards to enable them. now open a text or something where you need to type. tap & hold in the text field until the "Edit Text" window appears then select Input Method and then pick your poison....DONE.
Hope that answers your questions bud.

Hey guys,
I noticed that the keyboard settings icon that was included in the keyboard itself in 2.1 is actually missing now in 2.2. I used to jump to keyboard settings using that icon when I wanted to disable/enable the prediction feature, Because sometimes I need to write some uncompleted words as in MSN app, Twitter app and Facebook. So is there a way to get that icon back to the keyboard instead of going all the way to main menu and then settings then keyboard settings then I change what I want ...?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Note: the icon I'm talking about was located on right of the keyboard hider icon.
In a word, no - it's no longer there as it's now the 'multi-language' icon. Only way is to go into the main settings via the menu (never use prediction so not an issue for me)
OK thanks for replying and help.
Is there any way that the Developers here can make something to get it back on?
Thanks anyway, it's not something that I can't live with. But it's really annoying to go all the way to the main menu to enable or disable the prediction feature.
Just press the 'multi language' key and at the bottom of the menu that comes up is a settings button.
I have just installed the Midnight ROM 4.1 and now am trying to get the Vlingo Keyboard to present itself as an option when you long press on say a search window. This only keyboard option I get is MTM Gingerbread. Any suggestions as to how to get this keyboard option?
Settings > Locale and Text > Check Vlingo Keyboard.
Now, go into messenger, long press on any field to type and select input method, check vlingo and you're good to go!
Note: This will only work if you've installed Vlingo beforehand.

I'm on the current 1.54.651.8 (well, a rooted version of it), and can't figure out how to change input methods, for example, to a 3rd-party keyboard.
It used to be, you'd long-press in an input field, and you'd get a prompt to select the input method.
Some say you should see a keyboard icon in the status-bar.
I don't get either of these. In settings / Language and keyboard, there's no obvious way to change the default device.
Long-press on the spacebar also does nothing (except to repeat space).
Is this maybe broken in this update? (Or in the BadSeed Rooted Stock 1.54.651.8 I'm running?)

If you get SwiftKey keyboard as you set it up it will say set as default might work
Hmm. Well, that worked.
The SwiftKey setup popped up the Choose Input Method dialog that I was looking for.
Then I selected Smart Keyboard as my input method.
I can't see uninstalling/reinstalling this every time I want to change the Input Method though.
Bring up a chat so your keyboard is open, then bring the notification bar down. There should be a keyboard listed, select the icon and choose your input method
Hi,
i´m missing the navigation key on my new HTC 10 :crying:
I find it difficult to get to the right position without them...
Is there any chance to get them ?
Thanks Chris
You could install default HTC keyboard like the m8 has. I use leedroids Tom where this keyboard is implemented. If you use the TouchPal keyboard you can also as the option by adding the edit shortcut

Hi,
the TouchPal keyboard is the default HTC keyboard ...
I contacted the online support form HTC and they told me that there ist no option to show navigation keyboards because they want to give us more free screen
How do you "add the edit shortcut" ?
Thanks Chris

What I ment was the "old default" keyboard like the HTC m8 got. For the edit button, press the icon top left of your keyboard (TouchPal icon I guess) and then press and hold the <I> icon (this is the edit icon) to add it as shortcut. It will show up on the right side of the TouchPal icon, see print screen.
